NOTE: This is a Facebook note that I wrote yesterday; it has received a great response and I thought I'd share it here.

Tomorrow, September 30, 2009, is International Blasphemy Day. The date was chosen to mark the four-year anniversary of the Muslim "Danish cartoon riots." Rather than merely fire off another one of my pithy Facebook status updates (although I reserve the right to do this as well), I thought I'd write down a few of my thoughts on the event itself and my own feelings on it.

From the official site: "International Blasphemy Day is not just a day. It is a movement to dismantle the wall which exists between religion and criticism."
